Fish eru.en organizing

The imposition which the Jersey stur-
geon fishermen have Ind 10 bear in be-
ing prohibited the commonngh Of hsh-
ing in The Bay and the threats Of ar
rests has shown them the expediency
Of organizing for mutual protection,
which we have long advocated. Last
week the sturgeon fishermen at Bay
side organized for self protectioo
against Delaware and to raise money
to carry the question Of q common
right to fish il the Bay to the u. S.
Court for a decision. Henry Blohm
was chosen President; joseph Il. FL
kinton, Secretary; and James strim-
pie, Treasurer, Each owner OF a net
is assessed 81, as entrances Zee, and a
monthly due Of 40 cents. Each fisher
men Is assessed five cents a week AIr.

frigator at Bayside and sells mitch of
the roo and dih, Imposed %
be present and greatly excited the fish
erInen TO rduad Of applause By pre-
senting to the association $500. lie
informed the fishermen il more was
needed he would furnish it. There
are other extensive handlers OF stur-
geon in New York whom it is thought
will also contribute TO this fund.
For tile past three weeks The Jersey
fishermen al Bayside have done right
well, notwithstanding the price Of stur-
geon meat had fallen TO four ceats a
pound by the time The fish reached
there. Much of Tie meat is now be-
ing stored in the refrigerator. The
Delaware fishermen and a few Jersey
men, who haye become residents and
are allowed to fish on the Delaware
side at Bowers Beach, have already
made a good season b fore the Jersey
me0 caught many fish. One firm cash
ed sl40O up to the present week which
is considered a good seasons business.
